returns of the states should be accepted
as they were received.1. To this tho
Senato and House assented, and Mr.
Hayes was declared elected: by the legal
bodies whose functions it was to decider
His title waa as legal as John Quincy
-Adams' was, or Thomas Jefferson's or
Andrew Jackson's were, on ! the first
terms. These fchallow-pated brains
which are reiterating through newspa
pers that Hayesj was fraudulently
counted in, are only making themselves
ridiculous. i " '
Filzhogh Lee has appearedlat Wash
ington representing that the j F'nders
are thoroogbly organized and w i'l carry
the state for the j"regular"' jllancck
electors, and that there (iced riot be qny
fear about it. Ileays the Funders'do
not desiro any compromise. jWheu it
is remembered that the Fun'ders have
besought Wade Ilituipton and Vance
to go there and make speeches urging
harmony, and have tried their best to
bring about a compromise for at least
two months, and have offered to divide
rveniy uic mu rxvai bcio ut ciinuto,
people may believe as much as they
please of Fitzhugh Lee's representa
tions. He is nearly as, gassy as Wade
Hampton and Beltzohoover.
SeoatQr Bayard spoke at Columbia
S. C.,on the 7th, ou the general Demo-
calic issues, the nuances, free trade,
troops at the polls, the electoral fraud.
Hamburg Butler made a very violent
speech, and told the -negroes present
that they . did'nt know enouga to
govern themselves, touch j less; the
whites. O'Connor, the bogus member
frem the Charleston L District could not
find .words bitter enough to express
his scorn of the "tarpet'-beggers" and
swore that he would, be elected over
Mackey "at , all hazards." The, red-
shirts were present, and a half dozen
colored men swore they would vote for
Hancock if they died for it.
We said the other day when speak
ing of the aeceders to Hancock, like
Butler and Forney, of Pennsylvania,
that so far as our information extended
not a single one of tho prominent bol
ters who had the power to defeat or
influence a single member of Congress
or an! elector. Directly after, it was
noticed that Jhe Hon. J. J. Martin, tho
sitting member in the. 1st, Congres
sional District"va3 defeated ' and the
Hon.! Cyrus W. ;Orandy was nominated
Siuce that time the question' '.naturally
presents itself upon our mind to what
extent we ought to modny the state
ment which we made.
It is reported that a letter from Gen.
Hancock is in existence, written to an
intimate Democratic friend, proposing
as a 'pieco of strategy to make a terri
ble unset on Ohio in order to withdraw
Republican forces from Indiana. Gen.
Garfie'd is probably aa good a' military,
i - t. a-.Mi u ii HiiL'UCX a st ratecv bv
operating iu a similar way on six ur
eight southern states. The pertinency
of the suggestion will appear when it
is known that Hancock intended to
induce his friends to "buy up" Ohio.
The St.'.r of Ihe 10th sav'j. that Phil
adelphia polls a vote for every four in
habitants. And then says if the south
wa4uilty of such fraud and ballot
box stuffing "their orgaus would split
the welkin." lie forgcta that at one
precinct in Seuth Carolina, where only
620 votes were registered; Hamptnu
had counted '"for him 1,170 majority.
Now let the "welkin split." That is
about one vote for every 2 inhabitants'
But we suppose the Star was not talk
ing about that.

AN IMPOKTA2HT UlaKCTlOtt.
Attention is called to a bill intro
duced into the last regular session of
the General Assembly by John O
Blocker, Esq., the member of the House
of Representatives from Cumberland
Thia waa entitled, "A Bill to Aniend
the Constitution of the fctate f North
Carolina," and the import i the said
bi'l was to reduce tbe number of the
present Senate from oO to 30 members.
ii was luiroaucca into tr.c ltoti-eon
the 22d of January 1S7?, and on March
6th, following, was reported favorab'y
by m majority cf the Judiciary Com
mittee, to which it bad Ihtcu referred,
in the following language, viz: "The
Judiciary Committee hare cvuiJ
eied thia bill , and a majority ol
the Committee iccoaimeiHl that it do
pa&a. Cook; for the 'majority." It will
be noticed that the bill bid is the
hands of the committee from January
22d, 1S79, to march Sth, 157?, before it
waa reported, when it a "rrportrd;
when it waa approved by, th- nuuit

copy from a Macon newspaper-.where
Gov. Colquitt was to speak. Knowing j
how kindly he was received
Thereupon occurred one of the most
remarkable scenes ever witnessed, prob
ably, in the state. For two hours the
man stood before the people, speaking
amid a storm of cheers, hisses, groans,
cries, cat-calls, jeers, and insults. Jmo
nnrnr-A xva, nowPrlpis hefore it. and the
irpra, nf th most ..nhatantial and
dignified citizens of Macon had Utile
effect. A dozen times the speaker was I

people in vain.

vituperative character, and carries with
it an intensity of invective hardly par-
alleled anywhere, cannot be doubted,
Colquitt affects very Cbriatian-like
ways, and is earnest in his aspirations
for a high standing among whatever
there is of. virtue aud uprightness in
Georgia. Ex-Senator Norwood, his op
ponent is no less respectable and es
teemed for his high character, although
he (Toes not put on so many of the airs
and mauners of saintliness as Colquitt.
And yet each of these parties are as
sailed by some of the prominent men
of Georgia a if they were cut-throats
aud thieves. So there is a stiff fight
i
going on
there even more violent than
exists in Virginia. But
yet calied in Wade
they have not
Hampton and
Vance as messengers of peace. j
In the meantime our 'Republican
friends have held a state convention
and after several days of altercation
adjourned without making any nomi
nation for Governor or othtr slate 0th
cers, the convention securing to be in
eradicably divided iu opinion. What
ever our opinion may be upon the habit
in some of - these tpulheru states of
turning parties into mere wreckers,
with a view of subsisting on the disas
ters of other factions, we may express
the opinion that our Georgia Republi
cans have made a mistake in not keep
ing uj .some sort of a state ticket. The
Republican party there not wanting
in able men, and of even representative
men, t-uih as Mr. Akerman, who might
concentrate, their vote, if they would
cultivate the virtues of peace, amity
timl haiiii'-iiy, and utilize the situation.
-itT-jnroiicatft iii'tne sioxe wS6Pnoiicans WDUld be willing to remand
uiiglit concentrate; the party, but we
speak of Mr. Akerman, because we
know that he keqs free from all the
tactions, among our friends there, jis
catholic in las politics, and fitted to
lead that isorl of a political conglomer
ate, if they would once all start in tho
same direction, for even an indifferent
purpose. 1
If wc understand the article iu the
Atlanta Republican entitled, "The Lost
Advantage" it meai
opinion that the course for tho Repub
licans to take at their late convention
was to support uot "either of the Dem
ocratic candidates but supporting, so
to spesk, the breach uow existing in the
Democratic party; and that we should
stand by, see the fight, side with the
strongest, for a consideration and with
Ihe victor reap the spoils!
We desired
to put in operation the
claratlon, that the end!
Jesuitical de
justified the
means". It goes junto say that there
would have beeni no inconsistency "in
the Republicans si pport ing either ticket
to promote the breach, so that the Re
publicans could cct a lair vote and an
honest c unt. This seems to bo "The
Lost Advantage," which the Republij-
cms failed to take. In another article
the .Y't&aVaradviiHs the Republicans
to look out and get as many members
of the lfgiture a possible, sou W
h i.d the Mlancc cf power in that body.
In another still ma!lcr tquib, it advise
that "fifty of Atlanta's best men ehould
now gtt together and put out the
strongest man they can as a candidate
for Gortrnor." There i tiU aiioth

The following letter is j puldiMu-d ia
the New York Nation, ii
1 To the Editor of the Nation
i The most ct rtaiu and -effectual way
to brine this about is to elect Hancock.
The .southern whites fe.ar BepubJican
them to negro rule to perpetuate their
power. Remove this apprehension by
a change of administration, and there
could not fail to bo a disintegration of
parties as they now txnd. The whites
would then divide, and tl
eu me
negroes would al.o divide
ind the
elections would be more fair
y con
ducted. It was a irreat mistake to con
fer the franchise upon the negroes in
discriminately, i he mass ot them are
whollyavUnfit for such a trust. The
presence of such a mass of hopelevs
lenoranceasa lactor must necessarily
degrade our politics, especially as thev
can never blend with the whites as one
people. As long, however, as the color
line is forced upon us 'as tho I leadinrr
pouucai issue, me whites must bo ex
pected in some way to be masters of
the situation, and acy fetratrgy; needed
to cfTect this will be considered as justi
fiable, as similar strategy between bel
ligerent in time of war. i J. H. 'f.

of the Democratic plan of equal rights
at the polls, a fair vote and an honent

account of what it calls "an amuing

Col. Caiueron, of the Durham Re
corder, gets a good deal of sense in
small space about North C-roliua'sown
railroad: I - ,
"It is impossible, it seems, for North
Carolina to have a railroad of hrr own,
that is, one that is to benefit her own
towns and porta exelusively. Tho Mate lw!MJ w"gueU member in a very no

which emptied her wealth ou one side
from Charlotte into Charleston by the
South Carolina railroad: bv a like pro-
cess which led .Norfolk by the Seaboard

ie and Petersburg by the i Petersburg
Weldon Road; finally by the l'ied-
mont Road which struck : the North
Carolina lVoad ainidship, rnd turned
the stream iuto Richmond. All this
bad been accepted as a matter of fact,
inevitable, and no longer to bo grum
bled at. But new lines were projected
lying altogether wilhiu the iUte, and
whose course of trade seemed to admit
of no diversion. The Carolina Central,
extending from Wilmington to the foot

tree from attack, and destined lo remain
a INorth Carolina Road. Vain delusion !
Charleston baa tapped it at Wadesboro,
ana Wilmington bleeds again. A last
hope for an exclusive INorth Carolina
Jtoad was tho Cape Fear and Yadkin'
V alley Koad, from lavettcville to the
splendid Valley of the ' Yadkin. No
sooner is that in a fair way of comply
tion than that too is struck on the flajik.
The wise and cncriretic noon! f lLm.
